Close, but not quite right. groff is not being given the -T option to set the output format, so it's producing the default, ps So I see stuff like this %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Creator: groff version 1.22.2 ... ... Using man to display the page works fine. When I use xman 1.1.2-1 the man page is also rendered correctly. Thanks for reporting this problem, and the clear reproduction steps. I can reproduce the problem, and bisecting points to this commit [1], which changes the formatting command used by xman. Yaakov, Attached is trivial patch to fix. If it looks good to you can you apply and rebuild xman?
